ah thanks... well I have it building more healthily after that.

however now I have some actual build errors.

../../../../source/winsup/cygwin/tty.cc: In method `int
tty_list::allocate_tty(int)':
../../../../source/winsup/cygwin/tty.cc:217: implicit declaration of
function `int GetConsoleWindow(...)'
../../../../source/winsup/cygwin/tty.cc:217: assignment to `HWND__ *'
from `int' lacks a cast

extra info
$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /bin/../lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-msys/2.95.3-1/specs
gcc version 2.95.3

hmm.... is this supposed to be building with 2.9.5? I have 3.4.5 installed.

$ ld -v
GNU ld version 2.17.50 20060824

$ uname -a
MSYS_NT-5.1 SLAVE-2 1.0.11(0.46/3/2) 2008-08-25 23:40 i686 Msys
